It's cold around here. It's always cold even if this kingdom is of the Sun. God, why couldn't it be any warmer dammit...
Hey, what's up? I'm in the sewer system if you don't know. Why you ask? Maybe it's because it's really nice down here and I enjoy swimming through excreted waste. Any other questions? Good, let's move on.
I maneuver through the disgusting sewage and exit through the small shaft on the left leading to my hideout.
My hideout consists of a small tent with a sleeping bag. A photo of what used to be my family on my left and on my right is a mirror. Outside of it is a basin of water for me to wash my face and hair. If I'm lucky, I get a small bottle of soap to smell nice for two days.
What did you ask? Who am I? I'm Atticus, king of thieves, and I'm going to change the world. I'll be the voice of the people, that is my goal.What? You think I'm exaggerating my title? I don't know who you think I am but if you can swipe food from an army of monstrous t-rex dinosaurs, then I'll change my title.
Hm? The people in the photo you ask? Dead. Any other questions? Oh, why do I live in such a dump? You mean why I'm not in some shiny orphanage where it's cramped, barely any food, and has ridiculous beliefs? Oh, I don't know... let me think about it for a little bit you insensitive little-
Anyways, it's time to eat, if you're hungry, I can spare you some of the bread I swiped but you are not getting any of my fish. I won that fair and square from the butcher.
